About John Caplan
In a March 2026 podcast appearance, Payoneer CEO John Caplan stated that traditional cross-border finance "fails entrepreneurs," particularly those in emerging-market economies, describing it as "slow, expensive" and limiting to working capital. He discussed Payoneer's approach of combining technology with local teams on the ground to serve specific customer needs, contrasting it with building a single application from a tech hub. Caplan also noted that Payoneer had applied with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for a stablecoin bank charter, arguing that owning infrastructure creates more value than renting it.
